The Go programming language was conceived in late 2007 as an
answer to some of the problems we were seeing developing
software infrastructure at Google. The computing landscape
today is almost unrelated to the environment in which the
languages being used, mostly C++, Java, and Python, had been
created. The problems introduced by multicore processors,
networked systems, massive computation clusters, and the web
programming model were being worked around rather than
addressed head-on. Moreover, the scale has changed: today's
server programs comprise tens of millions of lines of code,
are worked on by hundreds or even thousands of programmers,
and are updated literally every day.  To make matters worse,
build times, even on large compilation clusters, have
stretched to many minutes, even hours.

Go was designed and developed to make working in this
environment more productive. Besides its better-known
aspects such as built-in concurrency and garbage collection,
Go's design considerations include rigorous dependency
management, the adaptability of software architecture as
systems grow, and robustness across the boundaries between
components.
